Cobalt, the Ion has that nasty center dash. But I do think the Ion looks better.

I Want To Know What Car YOU Think Is Better And Not Just Performance Wise, But All Around For Like Driving Becasue I Dont Know What I Want............

doesn't make sense

"performance wise" they're the same!

"all around" ... that up to YOU, everyone's different so go test drive them and see what fits you best

SS is better in every aspect!

SS is better in every aspect!

y do u think it is better?

I went with the RL because I got it insanely cheap and I knew about the Cobalt SS and the aftermarket possibilities. The dash thing is very uncomfortable at first and looks tacky if you ask me. They should have a kit for that soon enough. Looks..that's up to you. They will perform the same except for the slightly heavier 18"s on the SS

Well i would go with the Cobalt SS because from my under standing the Cobalt SS has beter handleing.

Thats what ive heard also and in the redlines the center mount gauges takes a while to get used 2 also. but i just dont know because they both kind of have there own style

Well they are the same car. Personal preference is what will help you decide. Personally I like the overall look of the SS better, however the RL IS REALLY HOT as well. The RL is goin for a lot cheaper, and also has the added convenience of the extra rear doors, a really cool feature!! But hey, I'm still a Chevy guy!

Well the problem with the chooseing is that i like how they both look but i like the cobalt SS beter because it does not have that center gauges.

Yeah and right now I dont even think they have boost gauges in the RL's but if I'm not mistaken, they will be getting them.

They're on the comp. package.

Redlines are so gay! BARF!

^^^I actually dont thin so^^^ I think the RL's are a really hot car

Yeah and right now I dont even think they have boost gauges in the RL's but if I'm not mistaken, they will be getting them.

at the detroit auto show they have them mounted where the "regular Gauges" go and thats cool but i like them mounted on the A-Frame

Yeah the pillar mount is a huge plus, I think it will be convenient and easy to see there.

y do u think it is better?

exterior - is close i like the body styling on the redline but the SS still looks better
interior - exceptional interior when u look at ne car in the competing class. I Like the recaros but the SS can come with those too. For me i think the 2 tone interior is wicked.
performace - all stats that i have seen always have the SS coming out on top.
price- for the price the SS comes with better features.
Name - Saturn makes me laugh
Centered console - WTF is that horrible thing in the middle.

Don't wanna bash the redline but you asked y.

I really like the Recaros in the RL but when is the comp pakage coming out and what does it include???

Supposed to be out some time this year isnt it?!?!
RL guys give me some help here...

Do you really think that the SS will perform better? Would chevy allow the mags to say the RL performed better than the SS if indeed it did? We're getting 14.5 1/4's in the RL without a LSD. The only difference performance wise between the two is the wheels. I honestly can't comment on the handling at this point because I got the RL in Nov. and put snow shoes on it right away. The moral of the story is..don't believe eveything you read. It's going to be up to personal choice on the looks of the car. If I could save 2g's and get a RL, I'd deal with the putrid dash till they have a fix. Hmm... 2g's...twincharging???

I have a RL and when i first test drove one, I thought the center gauges would really bother me, but it only took about 5 minutes to get use to it. I really don't mind it at all. I wouldn't say I like it better or worse than the norm, just different.

I agree with ya man about dont believe everything you read but at the moment all i can do is read. My arrival blue SS will be ready in about 3 months then we'll see what happens. And twincharging O HELLS YEAH!!!!!!

what i heard was that the RL is .2 seconds faster on the drag strip(1/4) mile

i went with the RL only because i couldnt wait any longer for a new car i do think that the redline does look better but the cobalt is a good lookin ride too. performance wise they are te same and it sounds like a lot of the performance parts are going to be coming out for both of them. still waiting to see a cobalt SS up here and test drive one too just for the hell of it. Also are the seats in the cobalt recaros too?

i believe only in the comp package the recaros come in but its still sweet

I was wondering in the Redline are the seats comforable enogh to stand driveing the car for a long drive?

what i heard was that the RL is .2 seconds faster on the drag strip(1/4) mile

we all know that when its that close if when RL and SS actually start racing than its down to the driver. But for some reason i think the SS is just gonna be faster.

I was wondering in the Redline are the seats comforable enogh to stand driveing the car for a long drive?

they are really comforable for a long time, i would deff. take those in any car i ever buy!!!

I honestly think they will perform EXACTLY the same.
I mean sure our wheels are heavier, but the added extra doors, hinges, seals, handles, etc. probably weighs more than just a body panel. I dont think there will be much weight difference and i dont think there will be any performance difference.

I agree w/ p7x: It will be a driver's race. Heck in some cases the SRT-4 vs. either the RL or the SS will be a driver's race (cause we all know that some folks just cant drive)

they are really comforable for a long time, i would deff. take those in any car i ever buy!!!

Cool i hopeing they were i might have a long drive we i get my SS and i did not what to have my a$$ hurting from sitting.

Well Im gonna be uncomfortable on long juorneys anyways, I cant stand to sit on anything for a long time anyways, not even sofas, much less car seats. But hey I guess the more comfortable the better. All in all i guess support is my main concern, for those reasons.

I sit for some times FOUR hours a class and i might have two classes that long in one day. :(

O and sorry for going off topic.

I am getting used to it now.

My back's not the best so they're not the best for me. I guess that's what roofing for a while will do to you.

Well i would geuss so but i was just seeing if the seats were thin and crapy or were they holding up to the Recaro name or not.

I've sat in several RL's and if they are indeed the same seats then they shouldn't bother me at all cuz I loved the RL's I sat in!

Well that is good to know that alest we can be confortable and stil have a fast car.

Yeah Im pretty sure they are the same seats. I hope so anyways.
If not oh well they cant be too bad. Or I could sell em an get Sparcos!!!
